I just heard about several kiters riding inside out out of bounds swim area today off Tiki Beach in south Ft. Lauderdale. With today's east wind you have to be capable of working out 150 yards past the buoys to ride.
If you can't make against the waves staying within that narrow 50 yard channel beyond 150 yards from shore because your kite or board are too small or you haven't developed your skills to that point, this spot isn't for you, yet. We can't afford to have guys experimenting in the out of bounds swim areas without risking losing access to the lot. Please do the right thing, see below. Head south of the Marriott, avoid complaints from bathers and strollers and work on your skills there. Or just wait for winds to return to side to side onshore. Dead onshore wind waves are a serious barrier for newer kiters. In any case NO one who can't ride upwind and stay there should kite off Tiki Beach. It is just too narrow an access corridor. We need your help to keep this spot open, please pass the word on.  .

Our last larger meeting dealing with Pompano access was five years ago. We're having a new one tomorrow at the launch at NE 16 St., Pompano Beach at 6 pm to talk about access issues at Pompano, Ft. Lauderdale, Boca Raton and beyond. Access impacts us all so please come on down.
